How does a MRI machine work ? | The Science behind MRI

How does a MRI machine work ? | The Science behind MRI                       Hey guys in this article, we'll try understanding how a MRI machine works, how does a MRI machine detects and display images of parts of our body like brain etc.,    What is a MRI ?                      MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging , it is medical imaging technique used in radiology to create detailed images of organs and tissues inside our body.                MRI machine consists of mainly 3 components - the Magnet, Radiowaves and a Gradient . A computer is needed to display images.                  The tunnel that we see in the first image in which the patient is placed, is the magnet, that creates a strong magnetic field around the patient. The gradient (red color in the above fig) adjusts the...

Learning the way to learn | How to learn anything ?

Learning the way to learn | How to learn anything?   Many of us say that we know or have knowledge, whenever we are asked about the topic we are familiar with. But does that actually mean you have understood it well enough ? Hmm…           If a friend of yours, comes and asks you to explain about something, you might have told him what you know about the topic but couldn't have explained it clearly or you probably might have confused him even more…  Why does that happen ?  what is it indicating ? Is it indicating the lack of understanding about the topic in us ?   If you want to master something, teach it.                                                                          -Richard Feynman      The Feynman tec...

This is why trees will help fight climate change | Analysis

This is why  trees will help fight climate change | Analysis           "TREES"-the benefits of it is a long list right from providing clean air,food and medicines to stabilizing the soil to avoid erosion, it's an important resource to human life.            In this article, we'll know how trees are going to play a huge difference in combating climate change. Why importantly trees?            Trees live in contact with many microorganisms in soil. These include fungi that trees need to survive.When trees capture carbon from the atmosphere, much of that carbon enters the soil to feed these microorganisms which in turn help in building healthy soil that supports life and stores carbon for a long time. One of the major compounds responsible for climate change is carbon-di-oxide. By increasing the green cover, more carbon-di-oxide will be captured and thereby reducing it's amount in nature and ...

Thinking from First Principles - The Physics framework of thinking !! 🔥

First Principles - The Physics framework of thinking!!          "The Earth is flat". This is what people thought, because they could see people,vehicles, all moving in the horizontal direction, until science came and proved it wrong. Like this, in our day to day life, we start assuming things  to be true, that we observe or what people tell us, without thinking whether it is actually true or appearing to be. So how do we know the actual fact? Can we change the way we think? YES... we need to adopt the "First Principles Thinking" method. What is First Principles Thinking?   Why should we use it?         The first time I heard this was from SpaceX CEO, Elon Musk. First principles thinking  is a kind of physics way of looking at the world. It is basically boiling things down to the fundamental truths, that you know are true and reasoning from up there. In mathematics, it is known as an axiom. Normally, what people do i...
